Took about 5 listens to really start enjoying it, which is probably 4 more chances than most non-fanboys would give it.
valley_parade:
I'm still really enjoying the new AC Newman album.
MusicScribbles:
So far this year I've really enjoyed quite a few albums.
The new Decemberists has been a bit disappointing, but I need to give that another listen. Otherwise it doesn't belong on my list.
Out of nowhere, I've really been enjoying the new Thermals album.
Otherwise, here's a list of my own recommendations.
Japandroids - Post-Nothing
Cymbals Eat Guitars - Why There Are Mountains
Grizzly Bear - Veckatimest (This album has one of the best opening few tracks I've heard in a while.)
DarkAvenger:
I don't know if I just haven't listened to many good things this year but the only albums I'm really loving (and by that I mean at least one listen per day) are Sholi's debut and the These Estates EP.
Seriously. Both of those are absolutely terrific. Good on you Johnny!
parm:
I think the album that's made me want to be 16 and thinking that music is the most important thing in the world ever again so far this year is "Hey Everyone" by Dananananaykroyd. It's a collision of so much stuff all thrown together in such an amazingly energetic and downright fun way I can't help but want to dance like a big idiot to it every time I hear it, even though I haven't been a teenager for the best part of a decade now. Like Los Campesinos, they're almost so fashionable it hurts, but also like Los Campesinos they're also so fucking good with it I can't hold their stupid modern hair and skinny jeans and baggy 80s t-shirts against them.
